My brother in law received a phone call today from someone claiming to be from Cash Advance USA, they said that he had taken out a loan with them over a year ago and they have not received payments. They said they needed the total amount paid that same day or else they would send an officer to his job to arrest him on Thursday. The person's name was Jack Martin and he called from 562-314-4852. The social security number was incorrect and he would not give him any info regarding the loan or when the loan was taken. He asked Jack to send him some info in the mail regarding the loan to verify it was his and he refused. He said he could only take payment by a prepaid visa card and would not give an address to send a money order. He said that he would only send that info to his attorney. This had my sister freaked out because we can't afford for him to be put in jail, we are seeking advice from lawyers about how to handle this situation. I honestly believe this is a scam but we will find out on thursday for sure.
